2026 Alumni Engagement Innovation Fund (AEIF 2026) - Thailand

The 2026 Alumni Engagement Innovation Fund (AEIF 2026) is an annual funding opportunity designed to increase the impact of the U.S. government's investment in exchange programs by helping alumni develop and implement projects to support U.S. policy objectives and promote shared interests. The fund is open to alumni who participated in a U.S. government-sponsored exchange program from Thailand, as well as associations of such alumni. The proposed projects must celebrate and promote Freedom250 and align with policy goals such as making the United States safer, stronger, and more prosperous, celebrating American excellence, or defending freedom of speech. Some key points to consider: • The fund will support projects that promote U.S. policy priorities and values, and foster collaboration or innovation. • The proposed projects must have a clear and concise summary, goals, objectives, design, and budget narrative. • The budget for the project should be clear, reasonable, and well-justified, with costs aligning with the proposed activities and demonstrating efficient use of funds. • The Monitoring and Evaluation plan should establish project goals and objectives, capture data needed to effectively monitor progress, and use well-crafted indicators to measure the project's progress toward the desired results.
